Sweaty Palms: The Meeting Follow up

The meeting went very well and we stood our ground, which was important. We told them we wrote the film to make it, not sell it, and, just as important, we wrote it to direct it.

Now that they understand that and the type of movie we want this to be, they are redrawing up a contract for us. It sounds like they, being a smaller local company, want to help us out and not screw anyone over…because frankly, they are too new to screw people. They just want to establish relationships at this early stage in their careers.

All this being said, while we have a week to think on it, we feel like this is the right move for our film. They can take care of things and raise money like we wouldn’t be able to and with this push in a more professional direction, it’ll force us to grow as filmmakers and get out of our comfort zone of doing everything ourselves.

It’s terrifying, exciting, sweat inducing, and kind of inspiring that anyone would even want to help us in this fashion. 

Let’s all hope for best.
